The auction creates urgency not just upon the Seller, but at the bank level as well. Remember, banks don’t want to own houses. They want money. The closer it gets to an auction date the more the banks want to deal. In fact, these are the ONLY short sales that we take on. I guess that’s our secret to success. I don’t even want to talk to a homeowner until they have exhausted all of their options and realize that they are staring down the barrel of a gun.

While in “normal” short sales there is some hand holding and convincing and educating to be done…even in the FJ stage, there is no such hand holding with Strategic Defaulters.

They long ago made the decision to walk away and they don’t care about 1099′s, they don’t care about deficiency judgments…they simply want out.

So if you could send a letter, get a phone call and schedule a meeting where you were walking away with a contract or a deed, wouldn’t you do so? It’s money in the bank…serious no hassle money in the bank!
